Key Features of Arctic Hayes Clips, O Rings, Pins & Springs

Each component type does a specific job, and the benefits show up on site:

• O rings for sealing: compression seals that restore leak-tight joints when valves, fittings and connections are serviced. Replacing them at each service is the sensible way to protect the seal.
• Clips for secure retention: they hold components and pipework in position without complicated fixing methods, which keeps installation quick.
• Pins for accurate fitment: they locate and retain parts in assemblies, so fitting and later dismantling are both straightforward.
• Springs for tension and support: they provide controlled spring action where a component needs to return to position or keep its shape.

Because these parts are sold in the sizes and specifications engineers need, matching the replacement to the original is simple. Always check the product details for material and size before ordering, particularly when a seal will meet refrigerants, oils or gas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I replace O rings every time I service a valve or connection?

Yes, replacing them is best practice. An O ring that looks undamaged can still have taken a compression set or started to degrade, which can compromise the seal. They are low-cost parts compared with the cost of a leak or a return visit.

How do I choose the right O ring?

Match the size and material to the original part and the working conditions. Consider the pressure, temperature and the substance the seal will contact, such as water, oil, gas or refrigerant. If you are unsure, check the product specification first.

Can I reuse clips and pins when refitting an assembly?

Only if they are undamaged, still hold securely and have not lost their tension. If a clip is bent, worn or loose, replace it so the assembly stays secure in service.

Are Arctic Hayes clips, O rings, pins and springs only for professionals?

No. They are made for trade use, but anyone carrying out maintenance can use them. Follow the manufacturer's guidance, use parts within their stated limits and work safely, particularly around gas, pressurised systems and refrigerants.
